Composition and music analysis tips

In order to analyse pieces properly, we need to make sure we are applying the right lenses. There are several different ways to assess how a piece is built up.

William Caplin’s “Musical Forms” is a great source of information. On the downside, this is a very extensive book -above 750 pages long!- Juan Rezzuto and WKMT are committed to summarize this fabulous piece material into short articles. These articles are not meant to substitute the reading of this work, on the contrary, they are a way to tempt readers to read further.

We recommend piano students to consult this material. It can certainly help the understanding of how we analyse Haydn Piano sonatas.
